Tod Maffin is organizing an in-person gathering in Nanaimo, Canada for disabled people after a TikTok invitation drew 2,000 registrations in 48 hours. The event happens one weekend in late April, with a Discord server for accessibility questions and relocation info. Even a 10% turnout could significantly boost the local economy.

Hey, disabled Americans, I'm Tod. I'm organizing this thing in my hometown in Canada. It's called Tod's Nanaimo Invasion. Nanaimo is the name of my city. So 48 hours ago on TikTok, I invited Americans up to hang out here in Nanaimo, and 2,000 people have registered. If even 10% of them show up, it's going to be a huge difference to our local economy. Here's where you come in, friends. So we have a Discord server with all sorts of stuff to do, and we have two special sections with hosts, people who have questions about how to move to Canada and people who have questions about accessibility. And in the accessibility channel, we've got all sorts of resources if you were to come here for that weekend and hang out with us. It's literally one weekend, probably the end of April. Um, it's kind of a crazy idea that took off, so if you're interested, go to my bio link, tap it, you'll see a form where you can register if you think you'll come, um, and then I will send you some information. Also, I haven't told the city about this yet. I will on Tuesday, so wish me luck.
